Looking for logos

[mrtoad]

Does anybody know where I can find high quality logo images, in particular the original WDW logo with the globe mouse ears in the D as well as the Epcot logos?

Thanks,
Mike

A great range of the original WDW logos are in the Florida Project font as dingbats - try mickeyavenue.com

For the EPCOT logos look for the font Prototype Community

Martin, I downloaded but for the Florida Project one, how do I find the dingbats? I just can't find them. I am using a mac if that helps.

Thanks,
Mike

Ahh... they get me sometimes too. They should support max os being opentype and truetype.

With the font selected, hold down alt and key in the following four digit code, still holding alt as you do so. There is an alt key on a mac isn`t there?

0149
0172
0177
0181
0188
0189
0190

There is an alt key but that did not work. I think I am going to have to turn on my Windows PC for this. I guess for times like this, it is good to keep around.

Thanks again for the help,
Mike

Martin,

Thanks I got it working on my Windows machine. If I had the dough I would give my iMac to my wife and get myself a new one with the intel chip so I could dual boot. I can dream, right?

Mike,

The "alt key + 4 digit code" is strictly a windows device. You CAN use these fonts on your iMac (and should). There are two ways to do it. One: hold down the ctrl key, option key, shift key, and many combinations of the three and start pressing letters [guess and check]. Two: Go to system preferences, click "International" and the click the "Input Menu" tab. At the bottom of the window, make sure "Show input menu in menu bar" is checked. Then, from the scroll window, check the boxes for "Character Palette" and "Keyboard Viewer." Now, there should be an american flag in your menu bar. Click it to select either of the two above. Character Palette is a useful thing to have for those outlandish symbols like square root or greek letters. Keyboard Viewer is what you need. Opening that window will give you a view of your keyboard. Holding down alt, ctrl, shift, etc, will show you the characters that become accesible. Also, remember that this is different for each font, so use the pull down menu to find the one you need.

Hopefully this is clear enough. Let me know if you need any more help--sorry I'm so late.
